Got her back to read anew and gave another audition (7)

I believe the answer is:

reheard

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'another audition' is the definition.
The definition suggests a verb in its base form which matches the answer.

'got her back to read anew and' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'her' is 'reh' which is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'read' is 'eard' which is within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'gave' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for reheard that I've seen is " Again tried".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
